Apologies if this has been covered (I am a new subscriber to the list). I
converted from ATRPMs a little while ago. Is there no more support for
Fedora 16 and if not, is my best avenue to upgrade to Fedora 18 by first
doing a DVD upgrade to Fedora 17 and then a FedUp Upgrade to 18? Are there
any gotchas I should be aware of during the upgrades?

I used preupgrade to upgrade to Fedora 17.
to upgrade Fedora 18, you need a F17 full updated and I used Fedup

Can preupgrade be used via ssh, or is that just a stupid idea?

i would avoid pre-upgrade and fedup at all and use yum
however, screen is your freidn for safe remote sessions
BTW: you are on teh wrong list
this is really not a rpmfusin topic

you could see a remote installation via vnc, and run in a terminal with
preupgrade-cli

no because F18 is the current recent version and
after the release of F18 the support for F16 ended
a month later as it will end for F17 a month after
release of F19
this is the typical release cycle
and if not is my best avenue to upgrade to Fedora 18 by first doing
a
DVD upgrade to Fedora 17 and then a FedUp Upgrade to 18?
maybe i am the wrong to answer this because i ALWAYS do yum-upgrades
by EXACTLY follow the instructions for the specific jump

hard to say, depends on your knowledge and setup
maybe things are a gotcha for you are a typical change for a long-time user

Fedup is pretty dangerous. I used it to upgrade a spare computer
running F17 downstairs. It ran for a *very* long time with no progress
display. After a while, I assumed it was crashed, so I restarted, which
left it in a sorry state. LOL! I haven't had much luck with the new
installer either. It's pretty unstable. I think I'm going to wait for
F19 before I try again.
Good luck!
